Many of the key notions associated with spatial planning are
essentially 'fuzzy' in their nature. For example, while almost
everyone accepts 'sustainability' as an important goal of planning,
the actions of the actors involved can render the achieved
'sustainability' minimal, or even counterproductive. Putting
forward an innovative way of looking at planning problems and
policies, this volume suggests actor-consulting is important in
addressing the fuzzy nature of planning. A tool to address
differences in understanding, actor-consulting is based on an
analysis of actor motives, perceptions and contributions. By
inviting all actors to express their desired, actual and potential
contributions to achieving an agreed outcome to a local policy
issue, decision-makers have a means to develop their goals in line
with the roles, motivation, perception and behaviour of the various
actors involved. Including contributions from Patsy Healy, Johan
Woltjer, Don Miller and Karel Martens, the book presents a variety
of case studies which demonstrate the use of the actor-consulting
model in addressing planning issues.
